De acordo com o presidente do grupo Ser Educacional, Jânyo Diniz, a empresa segue com
investimentos. “Nosso plano de expansão segue com avaliações de ativos e investimentos
na modalidade digital. Em 2020, realizamos algumas aquisições de Edtechs e estamos
ampliando nossa presença no ensino a distância. O aporte da IFC tem nos ajudado nessa
trajetória”, comenta.
João Aguiar, CFO da Ser Educacional comentou que “a IFC é um parceiro muito importante,
que além de acionista de longo prazo, trouxe alternativas diferenciadas de financiamento,
com prazo mais longo e formato de pagamento inteligente, que permitiram à Ser Educacional
acessar capital de forma mais condizente com o plano estratégico da Companhia”.

Financing will be granted in Brazilian reais and will be remunerated at an average interest rate of
CDI+2.55% p.a. in the first tranche of one hundred and sixty-five million Brazilian reais
(R$165,000,000.00) and the second tranche of thirty-five million Brazilian reais
(R$35,000,000.00), which will be disbursed together and proportionally to the first tranche, with
an interest rate defined according to market conditions at the time of disbursement.
Proceeds will ensure investments in the updating of distance learning platforms for students and
the development of products to help educational units face the crisis caused by the pandemic. In
addition to strengthening the digital platform, such financing will also support working capital,
integration and merger of new students acquired through acquisitions.
According to Jânyo Diniz, Ser Educacional group’s CEO, the company keeps going ahead with
investments. “Our expansion plan proceeds by assessing assets and investing in the digital
modality. In 2020, we made some acquisitions of Edtechs and we are expanding our presence in
distance learning. IFC's contribution has helped us along this path”, says the CEO.
This is IFC's third investment in Ser Educacional since 2010 being the last loan held in 2015,
when IFC announced a US$40 million investment (equivalent at the time to R$120 million) to
support the Group's expansion through the construction of two new campuses, renovation and
modernization of existing campuses, and new acquisitions.
João Aguiar, Ser Educacional’s CFO, commented that “IFC is a very important partner, which, in
addition to being a long-term shareholder, brought differentiated financing alternatives, with
longer terms and an intelligent payment format, which enabled Ser Educacional to access capital
in a manner more compatible with the Company's strategic plan”.
SER will keep the market informed of subsequent material facts about the Transaction and the
Investor Relations area will be available to clarify any doubts.
